Should I trust this dialect to convey the right effect?

quiapo sadness in the morning. but lantern parade at night! some recurring themes this year: call for justice for the Ampatuan massacre and Manny Pacquiao. well, we have our highs, and our lows.
after which, dinner with andrea and andrew where we talked mostly about being loveless,
and a little about how we were the only people who probably didn't love 500 days of summer.
i'm already settling into the holiday cheer!

you earned it. :)
though i'm surprised you managed to get our bet so soon.
and with no clues whatsoever.
but i'm glad you did. :)
[and i'm so glad you took your brother's advice.]
i know i always seem to have this contempt for what we somehow have when you're not around.
i just don't like putting myself in that situation because i'd like to think, "that's not me."
maybe it is, maybe it isn't...
it still really freaks me out.
however, bamon is right.
you can't always be completely ready.
but when i'm with you, it just doesn't seem that way.
there's no uncertainty.
it's nice.
heehee:
i can't wait for Feb13. ♥ |

• Zoology Lab Long Test
• Zoology Lab Experiment Sheet
• Zoology Lecture Activity
• Psych Long Test
• Filipino Editorial Second Draft
• Filipino Compilation of Descriptive Quotes
• Lit Personal Survey Homework
I've read a lot for my Psych long test, bit by bit for the past few days. I don't want to revise my Fil editorial because it's just horrendous. I'd rather rewrite it with a different stance, but I'm so lazy. I also have to compile some descriptive passages from songs and books, but I'm so very lazy. And I think the survey for Lit is kind of suspect. HAHA UGH.
Christmas break is so close, and yet so far. One day more! |

maybe it was the stalling from reading my 181 readings.
or the pent up frustration over CSS codes and lj layouts.
but now i can photodump there
KARA's so far empty TUMBLR
and just spill my heart over here!
makes sense to me!
happy dance.
there's a lot of inspiration going around in tumblr.
i found, after not seeing her for so many years, the tumblr of a very good old friend.
BEA EYALES!
she hasn't been to motherland soil since she left secretly in first year and her blog is just genius and fun!
you should check it out.
i've been cyber stalking her for quite some time.
DO YOU HAVE UN TUMBLR? SHARE IT WITH ME PLEASE!
p.s. maybe when i am creative and original enough,
i will stop naming my online life after Nick Hornby stories. |

Hayy. My brain is shutting down and entering holiday hibernation mode. My good consciousness is telling me to fight it out and accomplish my requirements, but the pressing need for sleep is yelling, "AHHH F IT!" in my ear.
It's not the days left in school that I'm grumbling about, it's the amount of workload I have 'til then. The past two or three weeks have felt relatively chill for me, or maybe I just had more vigor for my academics. Sometimes, it feels like I'm fighting a losing battle. I keep on falling asleep in Zoo. Not only is it early in the morning, but it's so boring. I can't imagine any of the processes, there's no visualization for me. Just white text on a black slide. For a visual learner, it's an endless zone-out. I fall asleep in Math sometimes, but only because my class is always during siesta time, from 1.30pm-3pm. Ugh. @.@
The following things are keeping me from my Christmas break:
• Zoology Lab Long Test
• Zoology Lab Experiment Sheet
• Zoology Lecture Activity (tabular presentation of the similarities and differences of mitosis and meiosis and a flowchart of the mitosis and meiosis process, typed here for my personal reference)
• Psych Long Test
• Filipino Editorial Second Draft
The requirements for Lab can be officially crossed out by tomorrow. I'll try to do my readings and flash cards for the Psych LT and my Zoo Lec activity/take-home quiz during my long breaks and tomorrow evening. AAAARGH.
I'm going to hole myself up in the library tomorrow. HURRRRRRRRRGHHH. |

this morning, i spent two hours watching the last few episodes of the second season.
and there's really just one episode left till i move on to the third season, which i can't even get a hold of...
i don't want to watch the last episode.
not just yet.
it's like letting go of that part of my life.
and i won't.
i refuse to. |

today i finally laid to rest two very important things
my BC 180 report
and the brandstorm defense.
in the middle of both, a mass communication college walkout happened.
and i was really surprised, as it is quite unusual, to see the college, empty and QUIET.
there were jeeps waiting in the parking lot
and our prof, who is super smart, super stern, and happens to be the vice chancellor of UP student affairs
dismissed early and told us we should go and be a part of this.
it was a college fight after all, and she said "don't be scared because you will all be together."
i must say though, that moment of watching everyone ponder about going was kind of exciting.
i think a part of me would've really wanted to go.
but i was wearing a black corporate skirt, low heels and an excuse.
so i showered my excitement instead to friends who WERE going.
i waited with them for awhile outside the jeep and
one of my friends, who was already on the jeep asked me,
"Kara, tell me again why i'm going."
i said,
"KASI. KELANGAN MO IPAGLABAN ANG MGA JOURNALISTS NA NAMATAY!"
it was of course, delivered fully as joke, but also fully meant.
but when the jeep was about to leave i found her in the lobby and i asked HUY AKALA KO BA PUPUNTA KA!
only surprised to see that she had actually been crying
because apparently her parents did not allow her to go.
she said they yelled at her through the phone and then the line was cut before she got to defend her side.
it's heartbreaking to see someone so heartbroken about wanting, just for this time, to be a part of something big,
something she probably wanted to make a statement about, or felt strongly about.
yes, its a rally.
yes, its activism.
yes, it's UP (HAHA!)
but it's also a statement of action.
maybe sometimes when we feel for something selflessly, and believe in something so very strongly,
or simply feel like SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT,
all we want to do is be heard.
rest in peace, and justice for the 30 journalists murdered in maguindanao. |
